1969 Map of Bovee Valley West

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

The high plains of Sheridan County are defined by the transition between the distinct topographic zones of Niobrara, East Gordon, and Kinkaid. In the southeast corner of this late 1960s survey, the namesake Bovee Valley serves as a focal point for local history and genealogy, anchored by the presence of the Hinchley Sch. The landscape is characterized by its reliance on scarce water sources, with the Snake River winding through the southeastern terrain while a natural Spring and various wells provide essential relief for the cattle ranching operations common to this part of the Nebraska Sandhills. This map represents the area as it was recorded for the Department of the Interior's Missouri River Basin development program, showing the distribution of rural homesteads and cattle-associated infrastructure that has long sustained the regional economy.
